Early life

Anderson was born in Grant, Nebraska and spent her childhood in Fremont, Nebraska, moving to Littleton, Colorado to graduate from Arapahoe High School in 2004. Born into a musical family, Anderson learned to play the piano, the clarinet, and the saxophone in elementary school and the violin in high school. Anderson also sang in the choir and would write her own songs, but she didn't start singing them publicly until college.[1]

After high school, Anderson studied apparel and design at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. She graduated in 2008 and continued to live in Fort Collins until 2018.

After receiving her degree, Anderson worked as a seamstress at an alteration shop and sold handmade handbags and clothes. At that time she considered music a hobby, playing music with a group of friends under the name Backdraft: the Musical. After the group parted ways, Anderson decided to go solo, creating her stage name Danielle Ate the Sandwich, posting videos of her original songs on Youtube and booking shows and tours around the country.

In 2007, Anderson began posting videos of her own songs as well as cover songs on YouTube.[2] She played a majority of her songs with a ukulele and provided funny skits before many of her videos. Her video, "Conversations with Dead People",[3] a song from her first album, was featured on YouTube's homepage. Danielle Ate the Sandwich gained thousands of views in a few short days and hundreds of new subscribers.

In 2009, Anderson became a full-time singer songwriter and began touring nationally.[4]
